My goal for this nursery was to be original, colorful & artistic. It was inspired by Minnie Driver's nursery colors.

Some of the decorations used were purchased when I was in college that I never threw out because I knew they would also work for a modern nursery. I painted the artwork, which was inspired by a decal graphic I found online. The stripes were added to designate areas for the family photos and the changing station. They also give baby something to look at while being fed or changed.

My husband is an avid video game nerd, which would explain his childhood Sonic and Tales dolls, as well as the Super Mario hat. The mobile was also his as an infant. It was really easy to put this all together, after I chose the colors and graphic elements.
